Generative AI is set to revolutionize supply chains by predicting disruptions, optimizing routes, and even eliminating human involvement in various tasks, according to industry insiders. However, the transition, while creating new types of jobs, will also lead to losses in traditional roles. Notably, AI is expected to become integral in the operations of companies like shipping giant Maersk, which plans to use it for various functions, including predicting cargo arrival for improved scheduling and providing recommendations during shipping route congestions.
